Re: Postfix MTA and amavisd-new (Debian) calls clamd and spamassassin on a mailgateway (success)
Hi!
You don't use Amavis? If it's a production box, plaese don't. On the
clamd homepage ist written (FAQ) that rogue e-mails may crash the clamd,
preventing furter mail from being delivered and scanned. It's the
(experimental) clamd feature "ScanMail". Workaround: Let Amavis unpack
the attachments and use clam only for scanning. (I had a stuck MTA every
two weeks)
To "activate" amavis use something like this:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
(see: /usr/share/doc/amavisd-new/README.postfix.gz)
With Spamc/d you could also think about:
cat /etc/procmailrc
# Spamassassin
:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamc
I weant spam only to be filtered when delivered locally, i.e. I don't
want outgoing mail to be tagghed as spam, this sometimes happened.
Amavis alterntively has a "local domains" variable.
HTH.
